One pole can be open and the othertwo closed, or two poles can be open and one closed. Pole discordance of a circuitbreaker will cause unsymmetrical currents in the power system. The consequenceof this can be:• Negative sequence currents that will give stress on rotating machines• Zero sequence currents that might give unwanted operation of sensitive earth-fault protections in the power system.It is therefore important to detect situations with pole discordance of circuitbreakers. When this is detected the breaker should be tripped directly.Pole discordance protection CCPDSC will detect situation with deviating positionsof the poles of the protected circuit breaker. The protection has two differentoptions to make this detection:• By connecting the auxiliary contacts in the circuit breaker so that logic iscreated, a signal can be sent to the protection, indicating pole discordance.This logic can also be realized within the protection itself, by using openedand close signals for each circuit breaker pole, connected to the protection.• Each phase current through the circuit breaker is measured. If the differencebetween the phase currents is larger than a CurrUnsymLevel this is anindication of pole discordance, and the protection will operate.8.7.3 Setting guidelines M13274-3 v8The parameters for the Pole discordance protection CCPDSC are set via the localHMI or PCM600.The following settings can be done for the pole discordance protection.GlobalBaseSel: Selects the global base value group used by the function to defineIBase, UBase and SBase as applicable.Operation: Off or On1MRK 505 393-UEN B Section 8Current protectionLine differential protection RED650 2.2 IEC 187Application manual
